Original Abstract Submitted
various embodiments relate to detecting leakage errors in a quantum system. a controller of the quantum system causes a first manipulation source to provide a first manipulation signal to a particular region of an apparatus of the quantum system having one or more atomic objects therein. the first manipulation signal is tuned to excite the one or more atomic objects within the particular region that are in a qubit space of a ground state manifold to a shelving manifold and to suppress excitation of atomic objects within the particular region that have leaked out of the qubit space into leaked states. the controller causes a second manipulation source to provide a second manipulation signal to perform a detection operation on the one or more atomic objects. the controller determines if leakage errors have occurred based on a signal generated as part of the detection operation.
